"A subdued nose of earth, red and dark berry fruit and a hint of spice merges into delicious yet quite serious flavors where the minerality is quite strong though the finish is somewhat drying and while not aggressive, it does appear that the hail had an effect here. My range is wider than normal as it's possible that this will come together with additional élevage but in this case, I suspect that the dryness will always be present and it's more of a question to what degree."
